If you visit Bangkok and don’t come to stay with Poon at her beautiful townhouse, you will miss out on the greatest experience while in Bangkok. Many come here to stay in the touristy or cheap sketchy areas, however, if you want a taste of local life, unbelievable hospitality, cooking classes and an extremely quiet place from busy Bangkok you MUST stay here. Poon and her husband communicated with me regularly, I arrived later than expected and they were there to greet me with open arms. I came to visit friends and former colleagues and the location was perfect, close to where I had lived. Poon helped me every day with transportation, was always concerned as to my whereabouts and made sure that I was well taken care of. Since I had to visit the hospital (Vipavadhi) a few times, she made sure she met with me every night to follow up. She helped me by taking me to visit my friends, and the best of all was the two visits to the Thai doctor - this is a must as well. We spent lunches together and when it was time to leave, Poon gave me a beautiful scarf and I just had to purchase some of her incredible clothing. Poon took me to MoChit to catch the sky train to the airport and we are new lifetime friends. Such convenience. My 10 days in Bangkok were unbelievable and it was well worth not taking my flight to Chennai to travel across Southern India to Somatheeram, Trivandrum to spend 5 more days with her and meet her friends as well. I am ever so grateful for being so well taken care of from such a distance from home. Her townhouse is remarkably comfortable and stylish, there is a bike for use and the location is close to the sky train and local transit to take you anywhere in the city. Don’t miss out staying here; Thai gentleness, humbleness and sincere care is just a small taste of what you will be surprised with! I love you Poon, KopkonKa Maka for everything. You spoiled me totally! Lydia from Canada. See you there!
